Since I already wrapped these up, I thought I'd put them here. I made these cabs yesterday....kinda proud of them, they turned out pretty good!! Hope ya like'em! Jaspelite.....almost ALL hematite...with a touch of orange Jasper.....Yeah I dunno, but I found it last summer, and it is soft enough not to go through tumblers, but takes a stupendous shine!! Laker....of course funky lookin orbed stuff........I dunno, but it's cool lookin!! Thanks for lookin everyone! Marie

Marie, what can I say? I really like the wrap on the laker. I love your tight turns switching back and forth like that.

Think I like the first one best, but they're all great and show off the stones nicely.

I love looking at your wraps Marie. The wire flows so beautifully. I think my fav in this group is the 3rd one down. for some reason it reminds me of an ornate mirror. Now about that surprise. You said in a few days. That was yesterday and a few in my mind means 3 so we only have to wait 2 more days right? ?

Marie, it is just not fair! Seems like you just started the wire wrapping a few months ago and now you are really running circles around a bunch of us! BEAUTIFUL work! Fran
